microsoft/skills-for-fabric

A collection of skills and MCP systems to enable users of CLI, VSCode, Claude to operate over Microsoft Fabric

What it solves

It provides a set of reusable AI assistant instructions (skills) that enable AI coding tools to better understand and work with Microsoft Fabric. This helps developers and data engineers avoid manually explaining Fabric's complex APIs, query patterns, and operational best practices to an AI assistant every time they start a new task.

How it works

These skills are packaged as bundles that can be installed as plugins into AI coding tools like GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. Once installed, the AI assistant gains specialized knowledge about Fabric workloads, such as SQL data warehouses, Spark, Lakehouses, and Power BI. It can then provide more accurate guidance, design patterns, and API commands for Fabric-specific tasks.

Who it’s for

Data engineers, Power BI report authors, and architects working within the Microsoft Fabric ecosystem who use AI-powered coding assistants to accelerate their development workflow.

Highlights

  • Broad Fabric Coverage: Includes specialized knowledge for SQL data warehouse, Spark, Lakehouse, Eventhouse, KQL, Eventstreams, and Dataflows Gen2.
  • Power BI Integration: Offers a dedicated bundle for authoring semantic models, reports, and PBIP workflows.
  • Cross-Tool Compatibility: Works with GitHub Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and Gemini CLI.
  • Architectural Guidance: Provides instructions for implementing complex patterns like medallion architecture workflows.
